Alumni Update - Scott McLaughlin

24 October 2017

Congratulations to former SPC student, Scott McLaughlin, who recently won the Gold Coast 600 race in the Australian Supercar Championships.
Scott began racing karts as a boy, and was the youngest ever state karting title holder at thirteen.
He started his career in V8 Supercars in 2010, aged only sixteen, and won his first race in the New Zealand Touring Car Series in 2012.
In 2017 Scott also set a number of new lap records and qualified for pole position at the 2017 Bathurst 1000, though his team's race was cut short by mechanical issues.
